[Steppes] News from Rolf the Red !

[Jann Mays]

Lord Jon is a member of the Order of the Oak of the Steppes.  He changed from
Lord Pierce O'Connor a few years ago.  Under that name, he received his AoA
from Patrick and Julia in 1990, a Sable Thistle for leatherworking from P&J in
1992, and a Sable Thistle for brewing from Mikael and Mikaela in 1995.  He has
also received some local baronial awards (acorn, grice track).  Um... also... I
am his wife.

Rolf the Red has a bit of history in the SCA itself.  I believe he has been
around since the "backyard party" was initiated at Berkeley.  His mom moved to
Denton, Texas, which brought him here.  I suggest checking Kingdoms of the West
and the East as well as Caid for further information on him.  Unless, of
course, others would like to share their "Rolf" stories from the past.  :)

“... his body curved in a graceful arc as he sank backwards through the ragged veil hanging from the arch ... the look of mingled fear and surprise on his ... wasted, once-handsome face as he fell through the ancient doorway and disappeared behind the veil ...”  p. 886 (abridged).
